Hi Everyone. Thanks for visiting my justgiving page.

I've had enough - enough of hearing that kids and young people, believe their best option is to no longer be here. How have we created a society that is so increasingly difficult to grow up in?! We are in a new year and sadly some people will choose not to see it through. I can't sit around doing nothing any longer so I'm going to "sit around" and do a 100km row instead! Hopefully I can generate some much needed money for this brilliant charity and also at the same time, raise some awareness.

I need your help - I'm rubbish at asking for that but this isn't for me, so I'm asking! Please donate guys and girls - it could be the best money you spend all year and together, we may help one person, possibly more, see 2024.

I'd like to complete the ultra-marathon in under 9 hours but if it takes 15, so be it. There will definitely be some physical challenges, along with the logistical challenges of refuelling the thousands of calories needed but the hardest challenge is likely to be mental. However, this is nothing to what some of these kids are facing. 

I'm lucky - I've always had support from family, friends, colleagues and staff - you know who you are! Hopefully this may just provide an element of support, to people not as lucky and at a time they need it more than ever...Thank you!
